New minisite today.

I'm quite pleased to get my own minisite today. :) I'll wait patiently until my creations are placed on here. I'm not sure how long that will take. This will be interesting and fun!

My! That was quick service. :D Thank you TSR Staff.

Signs of the Forgotten Highway

or maybe a better title, Signs of the Forgotten GUID Update.

Elven_Ranger alerted me to a problem with the recolours for the Signs of the Forgotten Highway, I checked and these had the wrong GUID, I have uploaded corrected versions of the recolours. I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience, bit of egg on my tie for my first FA upload *blush*

Just re-download the items and allow them new files to over-write the old ones.

Thank you Elven Ranger for pointing this out, much obliged!

TS1 New Vacant Community Lots

To complement the vacant residential lots I also created a limited set of 15 vacant community lots, to be published on Saturday.

These followed a similar approach to the residential ones, and I added complete pavements beside the roads, and relocated the bins and phones. I did not simply modify the same lots set as community in the default game, I chose to work on the lots in the centre of Old Town, to replicate a small town centre.

If you would like to use these I suggest that you make a new n'hood and import all of my residential lots into it. Then import whichever of the community lots you choose to make your own Old Town.

Please remember that you are welcome to build lots on these and submit them to TSR, but please do not upload them anywhere else.

Upcoming Stuff!

Hey Guys,

Well as you may have noticed the next project i have been working on was a Lot for your Sims. As well as creating clothes for your Sims i enjoy creating lots - but i have to be in the right mood. I met Wolfsim68 last week and she inspired me to create some of my own lots again. You should check out her lots - they are incredible. She has just released some TV Show homes e.g. The Brady Bunch etc. They are incredible.

I was lucky enough to find out that she only lives 10 minutes away from me so i went to visit her. She showed me what she was working on and i got to see her neighborhood with all her lots in. It was definately an awesome experience.

Anyway i hope you like my newest creation. Thanks to the TSRAA members whose creations i used in my game. Look out for a couple more lots from me in the next week or so.

Bye - Louise

Writing Ch. 16

I've been working on chapter 16. I've actually written it twice, starting playing it out too. It's hard. I really am having a difficult time with this chapter. I mean this is the chapter we find out but do I answer everything at once or do I spread it out in a couple of chapters?

My first attempt was boring. Cassandra and Bella fighting and finally Bella answering the questions. I found it dull. There had to be a better way to start getting answers but leave you all wanting more at the end of the chapter. Then I realized there is so much we don't know about Bella so I would like to explore that. Maybe even Mortimer. What were they like when they were younger and how did that help get them where they are now?

I know people love this story - thanks for telling me so! It really makes me feel good to know my writing is appreciated. Especially because I feel like such a novice. It's almost like trying to learn to walk and everyone's encouragement has been SO motivating. I can not express how much it means to me.

Also thank you for your patience.

HEY!!!!!

Hey! How are you? Don't know why i'm writing that, you can't answer!Anywho, welcome to my minisite. I will try to update as much as I can, but school prevents me from even getting on the computer most of the time. But, i'll try!

Here is a list of what I am currently woking on:
-Lips (playing around with different techniques, so it may take me a while)
-Beauty Spots (actualy it's all done, i'm just lacking in the preview department)
-eyelashes (not started yet though)
-hair mesh (fixing a problem, procrastinating on that)
-body mesh (same as above)
-eyes (started, but working on perfecting it)

School has started, and am taking 2 online courses. So it may take me a while to get things finished and uploded

New Poll

I have a new poll, actually my first poll. YAY!

"What would you like me to create next?" I'm asking this because I want to know what you, the downloaders, would like to see. Once I close the poll I will open another asking what you want to see out of the category that had the most votes. Hope that made sense. For example, if the catgegory that has the most votes is Make Up, then the options in the new poll would be lipstick, eyelashes, ect. Then once I find my answer, I will create! Simple? I hope. . .

Some random thoughts after becoming a Featured Artist

My older uploads

I will be placing all of my older items into the free rotation permanently, it takes a bit of doing tracking down all the item numbers and making the change, so be patient and it will all get done as I have the time to devote to it.

Perhaps, some of you will think I should move all of my work here. That just isn't possible due to licensing agreements with the persons who allowed me free use of a texture or mesh part. Others were group projects and therefore not exclusively mine, or not mine at all as is the case of the bodybuilder. I may have worked with Marvine on the bodybuilders, but I never have considered them mine in any fashion; so those meshes will continue to be hosted on sites of Marvine's choosing.

My new uploads

With the exception of the upcoming Catch of the Day set, the new items you see by me on TSR will be exclusive to TSR. The Catch of the Day set was submitted before I accepted the invitation to become an FA, so it is a bit of a hiccup. I will be moving it to free as soon as it becomes available.

I have some exciting ideas for new content for the game, and now that I can work with some of the artists whose work I have so greatly enjoyed, I look forward to a sort of personal renaissance as an artist in the TSR community.

Keep checking my blog for previews and progress updates.

Thanks for visiting!

PS: And no, there is nothing bad between me and any other site I habit. All that has happened is that I have added TSR at the top of the list; the reasons for this are pretty straight forward: I really want to have the opportunity to work with many of the established artists on TSR. I will continue to work with Marvine and others on the projects I already have started; but this is an opportunity for me as an artist to work with so many of the people who have made the content I use in my game.

The people who have been my friends in this community can continue to count me a friend. There are still enough pixels on my heart's screen for all of my friends to fit in my heart.

More Older Creations Updates

I have a few more sets with fixed descriptions, requirements, etc. Here is the list:

Momma's Kitchen Set

Royale Bath Set

Luxury Dining Room Set

If you have noticed, I have not been really submitting lately, and this will probably continue for a few more weeks. I am back in school, and have not had as much time to create, but I hope that this weekend that I can get a chance to create/submit.

That's it for now.
Happy simming!
